the pressure valve spins 360* and when preselected time has finished, valve still bounces around. Never had this on other electric pressure cookers.

Be sure you have it completely seated in place. Mine doesn't bounce at all.

I haven't had that happen, I think the most important issue is whether it allows pressure release while it does that. If it does, there may be a problem.When time is finished it is supposed to naturally let pressure out gradually without having to actually open the valve but i've never seen it bouncing around.

First u need to make sure that u don't fill the pressure cooker more than 3/4, And still if the problem isn't fixed then u can replace the safety valve. That should take care of the problem.

Same thing with mine, only the canister is rotating. My opinion is it doesn't matter. If paddle rotates in opposite direction, that is almost the same as increasing the speed of canister with the paddle at stationary.

That's a little tough to answer. When I turn mine on I turn it very slowly in very small increments so that it starts slowly increasing it as I need it. My first guess is that you are turning it too far so getting the full force. If you aren't turning it to full force and getting full force something else is wrong with the valve.

The pressure regulator knob is suppose to be loose to help release steam - just like on the ones you use on the stove - those are loose also. Hope that helps. D.Wertz

This pressure cooker nearly blew up in our kitchen. I returned it and think you should, too, for safety reasons. I had owned a different brand for 20 years and never had a problem.

The old clip may have been slightly bent making it more difficult to lock in. You can buy new ones or straighten out the old one. The valve is 180 wrong just turn it around. there are several videos on U tube on how to do this.

I haven't had any problems with this cooker. It turns off when the time has counted down. If you're setting the time and it's turning off before the elapsed time, then I would say it's defective.

this has not been a problem for me. Are you zeroing it out? Has this been a problem from the first for you? Mine has always settled in, but there are occassions when it does kind of go back and forth between for example 27g and 28 g if you are really on the edge of a little more than 27g and a little less than 28g. I hope this is helpful. If yours is bouncing all over then perhaps you have a defective one. I hope this is helpful. Good Luck.

It doesn't have a "steady" or constant setting using the pressure switch. It is only on while you apply pressure to the pressure pad.

That was a symptom I had when there were either air bubbles in the system or an obstruction somewhere. Eventually the valve, or whatever the mechanism was internally, froze in place and it wouldn't generate pressure at all, despite clean system. That's when I returned it to Costco, only a year old. Went with a more expensive gasoline unit instead, much better power for cleaning and longevity.

Yea we had the same problem. I think there's a problem with the seal, so it won't steam. We just returned it and gave up on it. If you've got a pressure cooker or even just a steamer + a blender you can make your own without baby food without this overpriced piece of defective garbage.

I never had that problem. I would contact the customer service dept, or try to send back for a replacement. Once you do start to use this pressure cooker you will absolutely love it!

nope. i've used mine about 10 times now without any problems. the first use though, i needed to put some olive oil on the pressure valve but that's it.

Make sure that dot on the knob is on "Pressure". If you have it on steam it will just cook without no pressure.

I just rotated or twisted mine clockwise about half a turn and it popped up. Maybe you have a defective bottle dispenser?

Not sure, is it in rightist up? The valve should rotate counterclockwise cold down hot at about 9 o'clock. Thats all I got.
